Motor and gear oil on it's way. I ended up paying way more for both than what I could have gotten elsewhere. I bought on Amazon, I got some cards from the holidays so I used them up.
6 quarts of Redline MT-90 and 6 quarts of joe Gibbs break-in oil.
I plan to change just the filter after the initial cam break-in. Good insurance so why not?
I go back to second semester of my welding degree the 7th of January, hoping I get her done by then!
Now for a question on climate. Is having this engines first start being cold (around 30°) going to be bad?
I don't have a garage, I work under my covered carport. I can use various space heaters to warm the engine prior, which would help.
For the first 1500 miles, I will only drive this truck to work at night on the weekdays and whenever on the weekends. The campus I go to requires me to take the freeway (unless I wanna take 45 minutes) so I will just take my Xtracab. I work downtown and I can drive on the city roads, good break-in for some RPM variance. On the weekends I'll try and take it out more to get some break-in miles on it.
